Reports reaching us at African Future Leadership Magazine (AFLM) say that the Creative Africa Nexus (CANEX) Weekend 2022 is primed for a thrilling climax following the unveiling of the impressive list of artists that would be performing on the last day at the three-day summit.
Instructively, the all-star line-up, specially curated by the All Africa Music Awards, Afrima and Canex Weekend, aims to showcase the diversity of talent from across the continent, with a significant nod to the diaspora.
Accordingly, artists representing the various regions of Africa will bring their star talent and energy to the closing event of what promises to be a historic time out for Africa’s creative sector.
Thus, leading the line of those to thrill the participants and the continent, at large, is Julian Marley, son of the legendary Bob Marley alongside multiple award-winning Nigerian afro-pop singer, Yemi Alade.
The others include Josey (Côte d’Ivoire), Nandy (Tanzania), Nadia Nakai (South Africa), Suspect 95 (Cote d’Ivoire), Didi B (Côte d’Ivoire) and DJ Mohgreen (Morocco/ France).
Toofan, Blinky Bill, Ayodele, The Cavemen, Elaine, and Oswald Kouamé et N’Zassa Music will also be performing according to the organisers.
